CDN Interconnect

What is CDN Interconnect?

CDN Interconnect allows select CDN providers to establish
direct interconnect links with Google’s edge network at various locations.
Customer egressing network traffic from Google Cloud Platform through one of
these links will benefit from the direct connectivity to the CDN providers
and will be billed automatically with reduced pricing.

Typical CDN Interconnect Use Cases

High Volume Egress traffic

If you're populating your CDN with large data files from Google Cloud, you can
optimize this traffic by using the CDN Interconnect links between Google Cloud and
selected providers.

Frequent content updates

Cloud workloads that frequently update data stored in CDN locations
will benefit from using CDN Interconnect because the direct link to the
CDN provider reduces latency for these CDN destinations. For
example, if you have
frequently updated data served by the CDN that is originally hosted on Google
Cloud Platform, and is frequently updated, you might consider using CDN
Interconnect.

*This pricing will only apply to
intra-region egress traffic that is sent to CDN providers approved by Google at
specific locations approved by Google for those providers. You should consult
with your CDN provider on whether they are an approved provider and, if so,
which of their CDN locations are approved for this program. They can help you
set up your deployment to use intra-region egress routes when using Google
Cloud Platform as origin source.
